Reviews of Hospedaje Meryscar

cheap Very good location very friendly staff Diego (the husband) is a very good guide for a tour

Very cold showers! No warm water at all Kitchen, showers are quite dirty Walls are very thin, you hear everything around

Very good location and tour guide. I liked the atmosphere and hammocks.

The hygiene of the shower and toilet can improve. The mattress had sunk significantly and was therefore not very comfortable.

Loved our stay here, especially our night and day walks with the hostel's guide Diego! Meryscar has the perfect location

Good value place, not too far from anything in Tortuguero. The rooms are clean and have mosquito nets on the windows. The hosts are lovely! We only had very positive interactions with them and they always tried to help us with our requests. Bathrooms and kitchen could have been a tad cleaner for our personal comfort.

Very nice host and sweet outdoor places to chill.

The guide Diego was amazing, we did a night tour and boat tour with him and we loved it! He is very knowledgeable and takes his time to show you around.

The place was unkept, the toilet roll was outside the bathroom so it was quite inconvenient, beds were not very comfortable.

They were helpful and really commited with having guests happy!

Everything. The owner and her family are all nice, especially her girl. The cats are so cute as well. The location is perfect which is near the main street and beach, while is quiet at night. The host provided us some many useful information about the transportation and tours.

Nothing

Friendly staff - gifted us an avocado from their tree, gave tips about what to visit and information about the park, convenient kitchen, comfy bed, very cute cats, family ambient

Shower had only cold water but i guess thats the standard, the bathrooms were not the cleanest and the toilet paper was outside so kinda inconvenient. Also the rooms are a bit dark so not exactly the place to chill. Also it says its in the beachfront but its not really - you cant see the beach but it does be a two min walk tops

The staff were excellent and extremely helpful. It is close to the centre of town and the beach,

Most rooms only had a fan and not AC.

Friendly host. And nicely close to the beach.

The hotel could use a small upgrade. A bit of paint would do alot. It felt a bit rundown.

Very friendly, helpful, and accommodating host, Scarlett. The room was very comfortable, had a quiet fan, screens on the windows, nice paintings on the wall. Scarlett even did my laundry. The kitchen is available for personal use. Great location.

The washing up area could do with some improvements.

Location was perfect. Close to park entrance and beach. Staff was very friendly and helpful

The owner accepted the payment in euros according to official exchange rate.

The waste paper baskets in the wc full for 2 days,the mirror downstairs old and dirty, the other one dirty and mirror not fixed, with no water ,soap bottle to refill,no hot water, the floor of the wc horrible, dirty as well as the ceiling, as well as those of the showers.The floor of our room very old and with plenty of paint stains.There was a chair in the corridor very old needing to be renewed, the ceiling of the corridor needing to be painted, The light switch of the corridor at 1m70. The bar for hanging clothes was fixed from one side only so if you put some clothes it kept on falling.. To pay 38 euros for these conditions was a robbery.

The host owners were really friedly. Really family. I can recommend the hostel for everyone with not that high Standards. We liked it here.

For these people with high standard this wont be the right hostel. Showers are very simple for example.

Good stay for a budget traveller, friendly staff, very good wifi.

Meryscar is a lovely, homely hostel away from the busy main street of Tortuguero. If you enjoy relaxing in a hammock watching the world go by without breaking the bank, this is the spot for you. Scarlet is an excellent host, helping arrange everything you need (tours, transfers etc) at good prices. She was kind enough to store my bicycle & bags when I moved to another hostel (that I had booked previously) and I chose to stay at Meryscar again afterwards. Nothing bad to say!

location value staff

nothing

We had a really nice stay in Hospedaje Meryscar. It is really close to the beach and you get everywhere within 5 walking minutes. Arturo and Scarlett were super friendly and helpful. We did the Canoe tour and it was totally worth it. Would recommend!😊

The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. She recommended hikes we could do, local guides, and where to eat or drink. She was very helpful and nice throughout the stay.

We absolutely loved our stay! The location was right in the middle of the town. Right when we arrived there was a guide explaining about the island and its tours. We used the kitchen in the morning which was nice and clean. The place is wonderful and the host she is beyond amazing, she helped us with everything. She helped us arrange a trip to the waterfalls in guapilies, she dropped everything she was doing to come help. We are definitely coming back! Thanks for the stay :)
